With its unusually luminous, blue-violet flowers, this vibrant Rose of Sharon provides long-lasting summer color with little fuss. The striking blooms are massive, resembling a tropical hibiscus. They open with their intense hue in mid-summer and continue into fall. The leaves of the showy, deciduous shrub are dark green. It grows 60-96 inches tall. Some attributes of this Hibiscus include easy care, larger and showier flowers that last three days, elegant habit, and long blooming.

Paraplu Violet® Rose attracts butterflies and hummingbirds to each stunning bloom’s magenta eye. It has a tidy, upright habit with a height that is practical for any landscape. This fast-growing shrub is heat and drought tolerant and is resistant to deer. Use it in the landscape as a flowering hedge for screening. It is stunning in a mass planting, or alone as a focal point in your flower garden border. Paraplu Violet® Rose perfectly complements cottage-garden designs.

Paraplu Violet® Rose of Sharon Care

Rose of Sharon tolerates some neglect, so plant care is easy. It thrives in full sun but takes partial shade. It is hardy in USDA zones 5 - 9. Plant it in well-drained soil, preferably with high fertility; it likes slightly acid conditions. Water the shrub moderately and be aware that Rose of Sharon does not like soggy conditions. You may use a granular rose or flowering-shrub fertilizer in early spring, once the ground has thawed. One of the many qualities of Paraplu Violet® Rose of Sharon Hibiscus x is its tolerance for a wide range of soil pH. In addition, it is salt tolerant.

This plant needs no special winter care. Little pruning is needed due to its graceful habit. It blooms on new wood, therefore, if you do want to give it a light pruning, early spring is best before buds develop. Note that this shrub will leaf out late in spring. Don’t worry, it isn’t dead, just be patient and your gorgeous Rose of Sharon will reward you with its beauty.

Paraplu Violet® Rose of Sharon Spacing

Large plants need plenty of space to produce maximum blooms. Therefore, wherever you plant it – as a screen, as a mass planting, or in a flower border – plant spacing should be 48-60 inches.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Guarantee and Warranty

Plant Shipping

Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.

Winter to Early Spring

We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.

Summer

If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.

Fall into Winter

We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!

Winter

Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!

Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
